Gowlipura:‘Shehri Samridhi Utsav’ was rally taken out by SHG/SLF members at Gowlipura, Santoshnagar circle, on Friday.Around 80 women from Self Help Groups (SHG) and Slum Level Federation (SLF) participated in Utsav rally, which was led by Anil Kumar, Project officer, Urban Community Development (UCD), Santosh Nagar ward, and his team. “In this ‘Shehri Samridhi Utsav’ SHG members across city will participate in a rally to spread awareness about DAY-NULM. Revolving Funds will be provided to all eligible SHGs.
A drive to form new SHGs, especially for vulnerable sections such as informal sanitation workers, manual scavengers, and waste pickers, will be taken up,” said Anil Kumar.It may be mentioned here that, ‘Shehri Samridhi Utsav’ focusing on Urban Livelihoods from February 1 to 15th, aims at extending the outreach of Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana-National Urban Livelihoods Mission (DAY-NULM) to the poorest of the poor and the most vulnerable, showcase its initiatives and facilitate access of SHG members to the other government schemes.
DAY-NULM addresses multiple dimensions of urban poverty by developing strong community-based organisations, providing placement-oriented skill training, extending subsidised loans for self-employment ventures, supporting street vendors’ livelihoods and establishing shelter for the homeless.
A new platform called ‘Shehri Sahabhagita Manch’ has been proposed for regular meetings of Urban Local Bodies (ULB) officials with SHG federations. This would increase participation of these collectives of the urban poor in resolution of local issues and create a mechanism for ULBs to identify gaps in provision of basic services in urban poor settlements.
